It's a micro USB-AB connector.
I don't know how it ended up with a host configuration, it looks like an oversight.
Maybe Vignesh or Nishanth can confirm (?)

I don't think so.
The u-boot series mentioned above was submitted to fix an error returned
by usb_ether_init() function. This error appeared after changes in u-boot
(arch/arm/mach-omap2/am33xx/board.c). The u-boot commit is:
6815a66ad7430 ("am33xx: musb: Remove unused configuration logic").
But this commit is right actually, and the error appeared because dr_mode
was not properly configured for am335x-evmsk and am335x-icev2 dts.
In other words, this u-boot commit is correct but revealed an oversight
in dr_mode configuration for these boards.
So, there is not a fixes tag here. That was just an omission in device trees.
